Have droven with a pair of new megan coilovers in the rear for about 50 miles with the dampers set at damper to soft. (I havent installed front pair yet.)
At the beginning, the ride was very harsh. The spring oscillated too much. But handle felt very light. The way car shifted its momentum to any direction that I steered was very fast and dynamic. The car felt light.
After the 50 miles, I changed damper setting to most hard out of curiocity. Guess what...

The light handle feel is gone and car doesn't exhibit the momentum transfer as dynamic as it used to. The car feels sluggish and heavy.

What is happening?
